Drew Seskunas‘ What Is the Opposite of a Black Hole presents an interesting assumption: “If a Black Hole absorbs all light and information surrounding it, then wouldn’t the opposite project light and propagate information?”

Seksunas’ sculpture celebrates my home’s rich history of science, highlighting residents, who worked to expand our understanding of the universe, essentially casting light where before there was darkness. The artwork honors the contributions of Queens-born scientists Dr. Joseph Weinberg, Dr. Lisa Randall, Dr. Marie Maynard Daly, Dr. Eugenie Clark, Dr. Ivan R. King, and Dr. Arthur Cooper. 

Fittingly, this sculpture is located by the New York Hall of Science and will be up until October.
